New preferred partnership with Hannaford provides tuition discount for chain’s employees

Hannaford, a supermarket chain with more than 180 stores and 26,000 employees throughout Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, and New York, has become a preferred partner of The College of Saint Rose, providing Hannaford associates a 20% discount on tuition for undergraduate and graduate degree and certificate programs.

Saint Rose offers more than 80 undergraduate and graduate degree and certificate programs. Several graduate programs, including the MBA and MS in Computer Science, are delivered via the College’s pioneering Flex format, allowing students to take courses in-person, via livestream, or online on their own time.

“Providing access to education is part of our mission, and we are excited to partner with Hannaford, whose corporate values reflect our focus on caring for the dear neighbor and meeting the needs of the times,” said Saint Rose President Marcia White. “We look forward to welcoming Hannaford associates into our Saint Rose community to achieve their educational goals.”

Hannaford, which has received recognition for addressing food insecurity, supporting LGBTQ+ employees, sustainable practices, and more, joins a number of other preferred partners who have secured Saint Rose tuition discounts for their employees. Saint Rose preferred partners include Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management Company – Ayco, Albany Medical Center, and St. Peter’s Health Partners.
